I am very impressed.
Leafs fan with knowledge about Sabres players. (And, I am not being sarcastic!)

I hate how Oiler fans talk about Gagner like he is some wonderchild...
It would take Gagner, MPS/Harti, 1st +

From the loose descriptions Ek provided it may be something like

Gagner & Hartki for Enroth & Leopold (maybe Regehr)

Personaly, I don't see ths being a "major" deal and it really doesn't do much for Buffalo unless they feel they need another small 2nd line centre.

The oilers won't give up gagner for enroth and leopold, give me a freaking break.

Sabres fans, whether you like it or not, the names that fit into this from the Edm side are Paajarvi, Gagner and Hartikainen. From Buffalo, you're probably talking about Regehr or Leopopld as the D-Man. As for the prospect, local boy Mark Pysyk would make sense, although I still have the is weird feeling that Edm really liked Grigorenko at the draft. Could be an extension of a deal that couldn't get done there....idk just my thoughts.

Are Buffalo fans completely adverse to the idea of having Luke Adam start the year as your top line centre?

Read, bourdon, a 1st and a 3rd. No clue if that's even along the right path but it'd be nice
- TypicalCat18



No thanks here's why(my own perspective of course)

Matt Read 5"10 185 RW - Montreal has enough smallish wingers further more the RW spot is taken by Cole and Gionta in the top 6. Matt Read is a really good player but not what Montreal needs.

M.A Bourdon - Good Start like his size and upside.

1st round pick - No thanks It's going tobe close to a second rounder
3rd rounder - Why bother

Montreal would be better off matching or taking the compensation if Philly goes haywire on the offer. Montreal would be better served with 5 first rounders then that offer.

IF and that's a big IF Montreal is to trade Subban they will have to come out on top big on the trade for three reasons:

1. Past trades made by Gauthier and company has left a bad taste in their mouths.
2. Subban is a huge fan favorite
3. Subban is worth more to Montreal then what offers may present itself.

I think any trade would have to be something like a prospect, a centreman and 1st for Montreal to trade away Subban.

Bourdon
B. Shenn (who's a C)
1st

for

Subban and a Salary dump (Kaberle)

and I don't think Philly fans would be too happy about it, thing is Montreal doesn't have to trade Subban. Philly is the one coming knocking thus the price tag would be high.

I don't know if that would get him, just what i would offer and nothing else, maybe buffalo throws in Leino. Except gagner is better than Bozak, and at least Paajarvi has tools to be a solid 3rd line player.
- Oil_Addict

Are you basing Gagner being better than Bozak based on their identical stats from last year of 18G's, 29A's 47P's? And Bozak did it in 2 less games, lol
Kadri has tools to be top6...

You realize smid had a tremendous year in terms of blocks, hits and his handling of top-line opposition. I understand you don't watch any oilers games so its understandable, you see 15 points and think he is garbage.

Petry struggled to start the year and had a very solid final 40 games where he got approximately 20 of his 25 points

I hear Kadri's name come up a lot from Leafs fans, if he's so great why is he involved in every trade scenario?

No Buffalo fan wants Gagner..

he had 7 points in his last 23 games.. We get that production from Leino.

All of his points were in the same like 8 game span.

He is NOT a game changer and no better than any center that we currently have on our top 2 lines.

I would much rather have Ryan, Stastny, Getzlaf, Kane, Kane, etc.

it sucks that the market is so dry that Sekera and Brennan in a trade could only net us Gagner and his over paid contract.
